  1. He's probably starting to figure out that the Cubs will not pick-up his option for next year. That'd be really unwise on the Cubs part - if they didn't want him back, they should pick up his option and then trade him. They should get something very valuable in a trade for a solid second baseman who's only getting $2.5 million for a full season. I wouldn't trade him, though. I don't think the Cubs can beat that sort of production at that price at 2B next season.
  2. Wow, you guys are well ahead of me. The Jaxx *just* won for me.
  3. Per the Bay Area's KTVU Channel 2 (FOX) - the Giants TV station - Barry Bonds will be activated sometime during the Cubs series.
  4. Per the Bay Area's KTVU Channel 2 (FOX) - the Giants TV station - Barry will be activated sometime during the Cubs series. I'm going to edit the title.
  5. And that's why you never slide into first, sucker! [-X
  6. Another blown call that favors the Jaxx. :o
  7. I'd say so. 8 IP, 6 hits, 0 runs, 2 walks, 11 strikeouts, HBP, WP, 10 groundouts, 3 flyouts, On 116 pitches.
  8. Wow, what a game for Nolasco.
  9. 94 mph on a fastball on pitch #113? Wow. Finish him off!
  10. K #11 - that sounds like a great curve.
  11. It's a shame Chad Billingsley didn't complete the game.
  12. And now a BB. Two on, none out in the top of the 8th.
  13. Argh, bunt single. No one covering first. :(
  14. Jacksonville's (Dodgers) Chad Billingsley - one of the top prospects in all of baseball - is no-hitting Birmingham (White Sox) in the 8th inning in the other SL playoff game.
  15. Eh, it'd be his last outing of the season and he's already had the combination of the workload in high school and in Mesa. I don't think skipping his turn in the final game of the season is going to hurt him. I wasn't saying it would. I was just guessing at why they held him out of the game. They also wanted to get a bunch of relievers in to the game because it was the last game of the season.
  16. Donald Veal's last 3 appearances: 14 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 21 K, 8 BB. Not too shabby...
  17. RHP Ricky Nolasco (14-3, 2.89 ERA) vs. RHP Nick Ungs (7-5, 3.68 ERA)
  18. We want Z vs. Barry! (It's not going to happen. :()
  19. I'm not sure why Pawelek hasn't pitched yet. Santana out after giving up 7 (not all earned), Evenson coming in. The last 3 runs scored via a controversial HR off John Mayberry Jr.'s bat (the guy drafted one pick ahead of Mark Pawelek). The ump ruled that the ball hit the foul pole, but the Boise team thought it hit the wall. Even the Spokane announcer thought it wasn't a HR. A bunch of the Hawks joined their manager in arguing the call, and when the manager was ejected, he kicked dirt at the ump, threw his hat at home plate and searched for things to throw before finally leaving. The Boise crowd is unrelentingly booing the umps. At the stretch, Boise is down 7-2.
  20. Boise scored another one in the bottom of the 4th. Veal's night is done, his final line: 5 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 10 K, 2 BB Andy Santana is coming in in the 6th...
